I’m right there with you! I worked all weekend long, and today is my day off (last one til my birthday in 2 weeks – that will really be my MON day. I went on a glorious outdoor run, catch-up on a million computer things, laundry, grocery shopping, and going to yoga in a bit to stretch it all out…

oh “mon”days. i am hitting up TRX class tonight and then doing super easy dinner – homemade sauce that someone gave to me + already cooked gnocchi and chicken sausage. one and done! maybe even a little vino as well.

Thanks for sharing that, it gives monday a whole new light. Today I am curling up at a friends home by the fire to study and sipping on apple cinnamon tea. I’m treating myself to a total rest day and hopefully going to be prepared for my exam! (If I can get out of the blog world soon!)

Today is Mon Day for me because I’m doing something maybe a little crazy, but it is for the good of our family: I’m interviewing for a part time job. Yes that means I will be working 65+ hours per week, but the money will help us out and I know I can do it. I won’t lie, I am super nervous that I will burn myself out, but I know I’m doing it for the right reasons and I need to just remind myself of that!

I totally need to embrace the “mon” more on Mondays. I have such a hard time facing Mondays lately. But taking your approach, I think I’ll face next Monday with more gusto…at least I hope so! It did start off well today – 5 miles on the treadmill that literally FLEW by, but then I faced 2 hrs in the car and a rather blah day at work and I’m back into the Monday blues which I HATE! I do have barre n9ne to look forward to as part of “mon” time, but still…I need to do something about these midday blues!

This is lovely! I hope you had a wonderful Monday. Those precious “me” moments are sooo important…and I love the idea of doing them on a Monday! For my “Mon” day I got my hair cut and styled for the first time in 5 months…it feels sooo nice and I keep running my fingers through it and swishing it around, lol! I’m usually queen of ponytails, but not today! 😀 xyx

I love it- I live in a french city and never even thought about the “mon”day.

Today, I went for a nice walk in the afternoon sun. All by myself and really enjoyed some me time. I’ve also done some foam rolling- not all that pleasant, but something I definitely need to do for myself this week- my left side is wicked tight and I have a half marathon to run on Sunday!

I’m also planning on putting myself to bed early. Again- race week. Trying to be very kind to myself this week

I also LOVE running grocery errands or any errands on a Monday , or a weekday of any in the day, because its not crazy! I went to the store today to get a little food, not much since we leave friday to move, but we needed some stuff, poor Anthony and I could not survive on cereal! lol

That quote is great, gives me a chance to look at Mondays differently I am making Monday a “mon” day by getting all of the homework done I need to, it makes me feel better when stuff is not hanging over my head!

After a weekend of running, baking(not eating it though), friends, football I enjoyed my Mon by running an errand to turn in forms, call school districts, reload the same page a million times(it felt like that) doing a 10 minute workout, and reading a book while listening to worship music for hours.

I am liking the sound of “Mon”day as I have been go-go-go ever since we got back to Nashville. Unfortunately, today was kind of crazy as well, but I have high hopes for next Monday. On a brighter note, my day did involve Marmite.

I treated myself to a hot yoga class this evening! I knew it was going to be hard and challenging after yesterdays ride, but I listened to my body, did what I could do, and know the benefits will make me feel better for the rest of the week. Can’t wait for my gift to arrive! HA!

I wish I had a little more time for me today. This week has started off with a bang and I’m already exhausted. Hopefully we will get to bed soon so I can wake up refreshed and ready to tackle the rest of the week! I’m glad you enjoyed some time today!

I hope you enjoyed your Monday!! You absolutely deserve a day to yourself and what better day for that than a Monday when the rest of the world is caught up in the hussle and bussle. Have a fabulous week!!

I love that quote! I enjoy Mondays now that I’m not in the workforce – the roads, stores and life just seem calmer (during the day that is). While working, though, Mondays were tough. One benefit to SAHM-hood.

Are you guys having cooler (relatively speaking) weather? We are and I love it!

This is so wonderful Lindsey! I plan to make today “mine” even if it still involves work. I have been thinking about making midday workouts part of my schedule–I think it will bring some joy and energy to my day. I’ll start today in honor of this post!

haha that’s a GENIUS quote! i love the meaning of that. also i took french for like a bagillion years and never in the world of mine would i have been able to put that together. hope you enjoyed YOUR day!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this and I want to remember it every single week! yesterday I made MOnday mine by enjoying traveling with my dad and cherishing every moment of the conversation, laughs, miles traveled, etc

i love having my weekend be everyone else’s weekday! i go to work on sat & sun when i can just to have my weekdays free – all the stores are open & there are no lines! plus you get to drink wine in the afternoon & feel like you’re playing hookey!

I know I have been super absent around your blog – but I am still here, reading every single one of your posts!! Thank you so much for the shout out you are so kind! I hope you try that work out – it burns so gooodd!
